This approach expands on the reform agenda of his book [Making Schools Work: A Revolutionary Plan to Get Your Children the Education They Need] (Simon & Schuster, September 2003). After his presentation, which was illustrated with slides, he was joined in discussion by Eric Nadelstern and Chester Finn. They responded to questions from members of the audience.
